A New York man was indicted for raping and sexually assaulting three women, according to the district attorney, including one victim who was able to send a desperate plea for help through a food delivery app as she was being held hostage, authorities say.
Kemoy Royal faces a slew of charges after the separate alleged attacks on three women that took place over the course of six days at his apartment in EastchesterA Bronx man was indicted for raping and sexually assaulting three women, according to the district attorney,
including one victim who was able to send a desperate plea for help through a food delivery app as she was being held hostageKemoy Royal was arraigned on a slew of sex-based charges, including predatory sexual assault, rape and sex abuse, in separate attacks that took place over six days at his apartment on Pratt Avenue in Eastchester. Bail was set at $300,000.
An investigation found that the first alleged incident occurred on June 13. The 32-year-old Royal met with a 27-year-old woman whom he had been speaking to on a dating app for a few days, according to Bronx District Attorney Darcel Clark. He invited the woman to his home, where he allegedly raped her and forced her to perform sex acts on him. He also performed sex acts on her with her consent, according to the investigation.
The very next day, Royal met the second victim, a 26-year-old woman, around 7 p.m. while on the street. The DA said that Royal claimed to know the victim through a friend, and lured her back to his apartment — where he refused to let her leave and threatened to kill her.
